Watch Kids' Reviews of
FAMILIES OF EGYPT, VHS

Astounded them. "The families are just like mine." "They drink soda like us and eat potato chips." "Religion is important to them." "If we are so alike in so many ways how come people fight wars?" "You will be surprised at how much you are like kids you don't even know." "The baby sleeps like our babies."

A gem. Informative and fascinating. Magnetic to kids eager to learn about the world. Shows differences between cultures and similarities between kids. Eases kids into more substantial media viewing. Professional quality even though it's a simple, straightforward production. Narrows the gap between continents.

In Egypt, we are introduced to two Muslim families near Cairo and Luxor. Weare taken into their homes and follow a child from each family as they go about their daily lives. We see the similarities in the lifestyle of the Egyptian city and the country as well as the differences.
